The 56-year-old actor - who was named Best Actor for his role in The Wrestler at the ceremony on Saturday- lunged at Jessica, much to her horror. A source told the New York Daily News newspaper: "He was standing near her and reached over to feel her up. She jumped back and made a disgusted face."

Mickey and 27-year-old Jessica co-starred in sexy 2005 movie Sin City. The ageing actor was seemingly breast-obsessed at the awards - he also made an offensive chest-related remark to a female photographer as he walked the red carpet. When the paparazzi politely asked Mickey if he would take his sunglasses off for a picture, he replied: "Show me your t**s." This is not the first time Mickey has got over familiar with a star at an awards show. Last month, he fondled Thandie Newton at the Elle Style Awards in London.

As Thandie presented Mickey with the Best Actor award, the actor fondled her from behind, saying "You're fit!" He later said: "I wouldn't kick her out of bed if she had gas."
